What is your first thought about the image - what does it convey?

A staged photo op?

A staged photo op by a guy who knows what the hell he's doing?

Just curious.

Max Velocity: More on Rightful Liberty

No man can do it for you, but several of us will do it with you.

You begin by standing up.  Then you stand your ground.

Max continues his excellent series here, with a practical action plan offered.

Many Patriots have searched for a roadmap to lead from the rhetoric of being free and at Liberty to the reality.  Read what Max is putting forward.  This is a direction some of us have chosen to walk.  There is room for more on this road.

Not your dad's Ebola...

For example, Obama has refused to implement an Ebola travel ban because he is greatly underestimating the seriousness of this virus.

The above is from the Economic Collapse blog, and it is dead(ly) wrong and a textbook example of Normalcy Bias.

The author is stuck in the paradigm that our "Leaders" must be underestimating the crisis, because the notion that our "Leaders" might not be taking prudent steps for any other reason would reveal that they are Evil, and willing to murder untold millions of people.

You underestimate the level of Fuck You in the other guy's heart at your peril.

I beg all Patriots, harden your hearts.  Open your eyes and accept the truth.

Evil is on the hunt.

Heh, told ya...

In the wake of Sandy Hook much of the Gun/Liberty blogosphere went full retard, expecting a new AWB from Congress, and FedGov Storm Troopers enforcing 2A infringements on behalf of Those Who Would Be Our Masters.

As America went on a record-breaking gun & ammo shopping spree that cleared the shelves of nearly every combat rifle, pistol and boxes of ammo in the country, we posited here that Federal legislation would fail and we warned that what would happen is that the people placed on the "Prohibited Persons" lists would grow across hardcore Blue states.

New York has already built a database of nearly 35,000 people who are to be denied 2A based on "Mental Health". 

California has passed legislation with language that is even more dubious, A.B. 1014, which goes into effect Jan. 1, 2016, creates a Gun Violence Restraining Order that allows people who suspect a family member is mentally unstable or dangerous to get a court order forbidding that person from owning weaponry and ammo. The state legislature passed the bill in reaction to the tragic mass murder in May at Isla Vista.

So in Cali a "family member" will have the power to strip your 2A.

Keep calm and keep your focus simple:

Commander's Intent: Rightful Liberty

I: Stand your ground...

II: Do not fire unless fired upon...

III: If they mean to have a war, let it begin here (Defend Yourselves!)...

IV: When war is forced upon you, go find something Evil and kill it...

Ebola Perspective

I haven't posted much on the Ebola gig.  WRSA has it covered.

Nothing I can do about it, anyway.  I was reminded last night about the simple lesson of doubling every day, beginning with a single penny.  Ebola may never hit the same pace, but the principle is sound, and worth remembering.

I do not believe in grand conspiracies.  However, I do believe in the Moscow Rules:

Once is an accident.

Twice is coincidence.

Three times is an enemy action.

This is "ramping up".  This is the "dropping of optics."

And the Enemies of Liberty are just warming up.

I still recommend everyone consider Election Day to be D-Day from the perspective of the Bad People - the last day of the good ol' days.

There is no course correction possible.  Impact is imminent.

Are you ready?

That's a rhetorical question...

This is what I meant by "...ramping up..." and "...dropping the optics..."

When the State demands the Clergy hand over sermons, I do not care what religion you follow - if any - you need to be cocked & locked and ready to go to your local Green.

We are the heirs of marauders, pirates, conquerors, colonizers, colonialists, and imperialists...

Today we say that the beheadings and crucifixions of ISIS remove them from the company of civilized men. They should be annihilated to the last man, we hear on cable TV. 

But the Romans beheaded St. Paul and crucified Christ. Queen Elizabeth beheaded her cousin Queen Mary, even as her mother Anne Boleyn had been beheaded by her father Henry VIII, who also decapitated Sir Thomas More.

The French Revolution Jefferson loved used at its instrument of justice the guillotine, to which Louis XVI and his queen Marie Antoinette were sent. Those heroes of the Revolution, Danton and Robespierre, were guillotined, as was Charlotte Corday, four days after she stabbed to death in a bathtub a third great man of the revolution, Marat.

 

Great men are rarely good men, and every great empire is guilty of great crimes. But the empires men still study and admire are those that created, built and advanced civilization, that brought mankind to a higher plateau, that left behind magnificent legacies.

I have no conflicted conscience regarding whence I came or where Men must soon go.

I have no problem with the Hard Things.

Here's the entire PJB piece.  I commend it to you.

J.C. Dodge: Get Trained

I've never trained with J.C. Dodge at Mason Dixon Tactical, but H and I did have the good fortune to finally meet him and his Lady at Brock's Spring PatCon.  Both are solid, good people.

I do know a dozen or more people who have trained with J.C. - and every one of those people commend him highly.

Read his post.  Get the message he offers: If you need training, whatever that training may entail, go get it.  Now.  If you think guys like J.C. are going to be available forever, you are wrong.

Here's his post.

...and we are now live...

Whatever scenario you may have been anticipating, from economic collapse, to world war, to tyrannical oppression in America, to disease and the fallout that will follow-on - you can find your flavor on Drudge, right now.

Whether the best is behind us, or we cycle back down in coming weeks, one thing is certain - what is happening across America at the moment is not a drill.

Stay safe.

You are not the Boss of Me!

Several random thoughts, with nothing binding them together...

Max has an excellent series of posts discussing Rightful Liberty:  One, Two, Three, Four.

WRSA has linked them all, continuing to serve as our modern Green Dragon Tavern.

Oleg articulates reality with simple elegance, here.

It's October, in an election year, and stocks are now negative for the year.  Duh.

It's October, in an election year, after decades of theft around the world, and Europe is just about to implode.  No, really.  This is my shocked font.

Vlad intends to keep Crimea.  Vlad intends to reunify all of Mother Russia.  "Told ya" is pointless on this one.  Test him - he'll help you glow in the dark.  WWIII is underway and ramping up.

RevWarIII is also underway, and as we have warned since the day after the 2012 election, the optics are falling away as we near November - and will be dropped entirely soon after the elections.  The outcome of the elections is irrelevant to RevWarIII except in one manner - the more D's in office, the bigger the rubber stamp that will be used as Enemies of Liberty move to their end game.

Did you know the original meaning of the word "commando" is "militia"?  This is an onion we'll be peeling layer-by-layer over coming weeks.

You should already be where you intend to defend yourself and your family.

You should already have everything you can lay-in.

You should be training relentlessly - because impact is imminent and the crater will be epic.

When Comms fail and we are all separated by miles and enemies, Patriots should use Mister Jefferson's definition of Rightful Liberty as their North Star: Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others.

Keep it simple.

Stay the fucking course.

That is all for now.

The Enemies of Liberty...

...have already drawn First Blood.

Many, many times.

You and I exist in a time and place wherein any action you take to resist, guided in accord with the principle of Rightful Liberty, may be defined under Natural Law as self defense.

What was promised to us in the Declaration and Bill of Rights, via the parameters of the USC, has been taken from us by threats of violence and by actual violence.

Once you have been forced into a state of self defense, Natural Law itself grants you Weapons Free status.

"They" are spilling blood.

You need not wait until it is your turn to be the victim before you defend yourself.

PJB quote: But today rogue judges and justices, appointed for life, answerable to no one, instruct a once-democratic republic on what laws we may and may not enact.

Even PJB understands the republic no longer exists.

Rightful Liberty: Max & Patrick Henry

Two pieces from Max using Rightful Liberty as the bedrock for the Hard Things in life.

Notice I did not say "...for the coming Hard Things." or some variation.  That is because RevWarIII is already fully underway.  Look at your feet - the rising tide of RevWarIII has already covered your feet, even if you do not yet feel the water trickling through your boots.

The coming North American Liberty Games are, and have been for a while now, present tense and underway, not some future event.  The Enemies of Liberty are already moving and racking up a body count of their enemies.  And in fewer than 30 days, after the elections, you'd better understand that every remaining scrap of façade will be dropped.

If you do not hear Patrick Henry in your head, right now, you are lost.

It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace, but there is no peace. The war is actually begun!

Go read the full text once more - the time is right.  Every sentence should hit you like a fist.  Here is Mister Henry's speech in full.

Max One.

I have now seen the likely causality of my death...

...and I am married to her.

For many of you who know me and my wife, you'll get the gist quickly: My wife and I went to dinner.  Wife had 2 margaritas.  At this point many of you are already going "ohhhhh shit...".

We get in the truck, into traffic and begin heading home, and all is well.  We hit a stop light, we are in the left-turn lane waiting for our green light.  Two lanes over, in the right turn lane, there is a car at the intersection waiting until it is safe for him to make his turn into traffic.  The expensive car behind him is driven by an asshat, who begins relentlessly honking his horn at the car that won't just dive into traffic.

Remember - 2 margaritas.  My wife has an opinion on the matter of asshats who honk in asshat fashion for asshat reasons.  My wife rolls down her window and shares that opinion - across 2 lanes of traffic.  If you were at the Idaho PatCon, you have some idea about how my lovely wife can sometimes share a strongly-held opinion.  Passionately is a good word.  Loudly works, too.  Lacking smiles and kindness can fit the bill at times.  Sincerity is without question.  So - she was sharing across several lanes from her now-open window.

Just then the car at the intersection - the one causing the asshat driver to honk because he won't carelessly turn into 50 mph traffic - turns on his red & blues.  He's an unmarked LEO - in civvies. 

That hit me and my wife right in our tickle-spots.

The moment the lights turn on H and I begin laughing with great abandon - because the asshat had been honking at a cop to the point that the cop got fed up - and I'll be the first to say he held his patience far longer than would have I.  So - LEO turns on his lights and gets out of his car to have a discussion about proper driving habits with the asshat behind him - when my wife decided to weigh-in once more, laughing at said asshat with language that made my tender sensibilities blush.

2 margaritas of full-bore H.

LEO now notices my wife, and decides the asshat behind him can wait for a moment - and he starts heading toward my wife's side of the truck.  As LEO gets a few feet from H's window, he decides it may be appropriate to put his hand on his weapon.  H explained in a very well-timed manner that she was cheering because asshat driver was an asshat driver.  I will not bother to explain my thoughts as his hand found his weapon with his attention on my wife - and fortunately he was quick to understand that she was supporting him in her own special H way.

"He was being really rude!" she informed LEO (and every driver in a quarter-mile radius) - as he had his hand on his weapon.

"Yes ma'am, but you're being a little excessive..." he said, and turned away to deal with asshat driver.

My light turned green and I did not hang around to learn what happened to asshat...

So when the day comes that you read my obit, some of you will rightfully wonder if margaritas and my bride were involved...

Stay safe, folks.

1) Artist Needed & 2) This is why we do not high-kick in a real fight...

Cock Punch

 

Yes, please bring the high kicks. 

New topic -

Artist needed:

I need a patch created from one (or both if you're sporty) of these images.  The graphic style should be bold strokes, not fine detail - the message has to be understood on an embroidered patch about 4" round (or rectangle).  Even the line art image above is more detailed than needed. 

Here are the images I'd like you artsy folks to work with:

You can crop them, drop superfluous detail, add "swoosh" streaks that indicate which way the palm strike is headed, or indicates the plunge of the dagger, etc. 

Remember, the goal is a patch that shows simple action and movement of the upward palm strike and the second is of the plunging dagger strike. I don't care about the knee to the groin - I don't teach that technique.
